A short poem but deep meaning behind it. There is something final about autumn as the old die off and we wait for the new to be born in the spring. Each beautiful in its own way. Wonderful poem

Just walked around and noticed the quiet feeling of fall and what remained. Much like different phases of our lives.
Thank you, as always, for reading!

You are always so kind, and you are right. Walking around and observing so silently felt like praying / meditating.
Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts!
